I don't think it's 4k.  It's supposedly a new type of cost effective OLED display or something.  Samsung is also showing their OLED TVs.

Toshiba is showing a 55 inch 4k glasses free 3D (camera and headtracking for multiple people) tv for like $10 thousand.  Others might be showing 4k TVs too.  Honestly that seems like overkill to me, only really worth it for the glasses free 3D, and I'm not crazy about 3D.

LG and SAMMY's OLED vs Sony's Crystal LED.




Wait three years max till they settle it out then buy whoever wins.

They didn't announce much, but I guess this was more of a symbolic event to prepare everyone for Ryan Seacrest taking over as CEO - not sure how I feel about that

That's fairly close to what I want for work. A lot of the time, I'm just reading through docs, so I'd like to have a tablet form so I can stand up, walk around, or go sit on the sofa or wherever. If I need to write a quick email, I could just fold over the keyboard bit and bash it out.

The other choice that makes sense is one of those Transformer-y docking things, assuming they carve out a niche and proliferate. I need a full-featured PC/Mac browser for work at least.

The 3rd choice is the default 'just wait for Apple to put out something far better'.

It's interesting that Sony said they are working in parallel on commercializing their Crystal and OLED tech. From what I've read the Crystal display works the same way as OLED just they're arrays of non-organic LEDs, maybe that makes them cheaper to produce? 

Either way its clear there's room for multiple display technologies. No need to wait, if the current market is any indication there will always be various competing display technologies with no clear winner
